Digital Underground's 1990 album "Sex Packets"
The primary concept being a drug/invention called sex packets which created a realistic sexual fantasy/experience at the height of the AIDS/drug epidemic in America.
Related concepts: old school vs. new school, r&b vs hip-hop, sampling vs. live instrumentation.. the emcees all rapped about ideas and characters (mostly comical) as opposed to reppin where they were from or their actual beliefs.
